Prediction of response to revascularization in patients with renal artery stenosis by Tc-99m-ethylenedicysteine captopril scintigraphy.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:In high-risk patients with left bundle-branch block (LBBB), functional but not perfusion parameters yield incremental prognostic information. The aim of our study was to evaluate the prognostic value of gated single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) in low-intermediate risk LBBB patients. METHODS:O...
